I want the ability to customize the top bar with the magazines I want to be able to quickly access. It's a feature that is in RES you can shortcut any subreddit to be on the top bar.

Honestly, I feel like Kbin is missing RES type of extension. Meanwhile, I found some good scripts on GreasyFork for Tampermonkey that scratch some missing features while browsing kbin.

The only reason for RES is that Reddit is closed-source.

I think that that's the vast bulk of the reason, but I could believe that there are things that maybe someone wants implemented that Ernest disagrees with and so they provide it as a client-side hack.

But, yeah, probably would be preferable to just patch it in the Web UI. Or in some of the upcoming clients.

Yeah this is what I'm missing the most about Kbin is just being able to quickly browse to my favorite communities and magazines with a click.
This mockup is a great utilization of the horizontal deadspace on the sides.
